Why Do CBD, CBN, and CBG Usually Go So Well Together?

As more psychoactive cannabinoids hit the legal hemp market, it’s important not to overlook the incredible value of non-psychoactive ones like CBD, CBN, and CBG. These three cannabinoids are renowned for their positive effects on body and mind, without getting the user high in the process. Each works with the endocannabinoid system in a valuable way to offer effects that can be more and more helpful the more frequently they’re taken.

Unsurprisingly, a lot of products on the hemp market combine CBD, CBN and CBG together. This allows us to experience all 3 at once to enjoy the many properties associated with each cannabinoid, but there’s even more to it than that, thanks to something known as synergy.

  • CBD (Cannabidiol): CBD is the dominant chemical compound in the hemp plant, and it is the most commonly used as well. CBD has been researched for several decades as we learn more and more about its valuable effects, which can affect things like sleep, mood, physical discomfort, neurological balance, inflammation and more.
  • CBN (Cannabinol): CBN is a minor cannabinoid in hemp that is derived from delta 9 THC, although its psychoactive properties are only possible in unrealistically high doses. It’s best used as a cannabinoid for bedtime, because many people find that its effects on the nervous system are particularly soothing and mellowing, helping ease the body and mind for a restful night.
  • CBG (Cannabigerol): CBG is the “mother cannabinoid” that dominates the hemp plant before it fully matures, before converting into every other cannabinoid that we know. CBG is the precursor to CBD and CBN, and it offers loads of properties that relate to inflammation, mood, energy levels and more.

Cannabinoids and Synergy: Why it Pays to Combine These Compounds

Taking CBD, CBN and CBG together can really maximize your daily hemp routine, not only by offering the properties of each cannabinoid, but also by benefiting from their synergistic relationship to one another. Cannabinoids work synergistically with each other to take their value to a whole new level. Synergy refers to the way in which taking certain compounds together offers effects greater than the sum of their individual parts. So, in essence, taking CBD, CBN and CBG at the same time can give you even stronger benefits than taking each one individually at a different time, through how they enable the absorption of each other.

Keep in mind that none of these cannabinoids is psychoactive, and so taking 3 cannabinoids at the same time won’t get you high, unless you also throw a psychoactive cannabinoid into the mix – which you can do, if you want to. Nor will you worry about overdosing on these cannabinoids since they do not cause toxic effects in the body, even at high doses.

How to Enjoy All 3 at Once

If you want to experience the full synergistic effects of taking CBD, CBN and CBG together, then you have a few options. There are more and more products that combine all 3 of these cannabinoids into one formula, along with other product types that naturally contain these cannabinoids and more.

#1: Full Spectrum Hemp Products

Full spectrum hemp products are CBD products made with full spectrum extract, which contains every naturally occurring compound in hemp, including these three cannabinoid superstars. This allows you to experience the entourage effect, which is the full synergistic benefit of taking not only CBD, CBN, and CBG, but every cannabinoid and terpene at once.

#2: Hemp Flower

Hemp flower is the raw buds of the hemp plant, which are naturally full spectrum. Because they aren’t processed in any way, the CBD, CBN, and CBG in them may be the most bioavailable of all. You can find tons of strains that each give you a different terpene profile for a unique type of CBD flower experience.

#3: A Strategically Developed Routine

Lastly, you can mix and match individual CBD, CBG, and CBN products to form your own daily routine that’s fully catered to your personal goals and needs. You can find lots of these products at The Calm Leaf, and explore different milligram strengths, delivery methods and more.
